FIFA president Gianni Infantino is exploring the sale of a 20–30% stake in a new company that would own and manage the World Cup, in a deal valuing the business at around £15 billion.

FIFA would retain majority control, while member associations and private investors would hold minority stakes.

The proposal, reportedly being handled by JP Morgan, has sparked concern within football over the possibility of an expanded tournament or more frequent World Cups.

Reports also suggest Infantino could become commissioner of the new company after his FIFA presidency ends in 2031, potentially earning millions in the role.
